So, someone made a test-order on a website* and used one of my domains as an email address...
... so I replied saying basicly "I don't want this, I don't know who you are, is this fraud?" and after a bit of back'n'forth and them looking me up online, they've asked me to apply for a job.


* It's quite an established name, one that lets you book things online and this site acts like a store-front.

You ordered something you didnt want and claimed it was fraud?

Nah', basicly, someone used an email address that goes to me to do a test-order on their system.
So I thought it might be a fraud thing, so I emailed the company asking what it was about.

Ahh, OK
That makes more sense

Why the fuck would they do that? Surely they'd want to test whether the system emails them or not.
I gave someone a bollocking for "sanitizing" our users table with my email address on our dev system.

They say it was their customer rather than them who did it, maybe they were testing out other areas or something.
